The Prince : )

We had our first meeting today! Everything went really well. Finding Holt on the subway was pretty easy. We left about 2 hours early so we had time to sit and have some lunch at a nearby bakery/cafe. Our little guy isn't very little at all. He's a big boy and he really is walking around! He loves food. His foster family adores him and they actually refer to him as "the prince." After about a 1/2 hour he finally let us hold him for a little while. Here are some photos of our first meeting....
